$235 - $174 = $61 35% of $174 = $60.9

It's not a spat when it's referrering to paying 35% more money for 10% speed gain. I apologize if I am coming off as whiny.. it's just the way I see things.

Well, in overclocking regards, I have gotten 2.9 out of this 'junky' WC rig, so for $174 CPU, I consider that to be great. Sure, the 3700+ can OC too, but for an additional $61. Just my opinion.

As far as I know, the 3700+ can use a 10x multiplier. Even if he doesn't overclock, I don't see how 200MHz justifies $61.

"So the $50 nets you 10% more speed AND 1mb L2 cache. I'd say that those 2 combined net quite a performance difference and I'd say AMD agrees hence the 500 difference in the rating..." Yes, if you are using stock. If you are using memory at 1:1, they are the exact same speed, therefore $61 for...

You picked out DDR500 memory.. therefore at 1:1 you get 2.5GHz.

If no overclocking is involved, I don't think the processor is going to matter that much, and 1MB Cache is not something you want to pay $50 for. "I've been seeing guys hitting 2.9ghz on air and 3.0 ghz on water." Is Stork going to be overclocking? If answer == no then 3200+ Venice 512K Cache...

I agree with Matt for the most part. Stork, I don't exactly recommend the free mobo that comes with the video card.. it's free for a reason. I'd not bother with the 3700+ Sandy tho.. For $50 less I'd just get the 3200+ Venice or even 3000+. If you are not going to overclock, you are going to...

If you have been looking for a new CPU cooler that not only does it's job well, but looks great in the process, then the 9500 may be exactly what you need. Made of pure copper, the 9500 utilizes 3 heatpipes which effectively does the work of 6! Let's see how it compares to other heatsinks we...

Ahh, so probably fake. Sounds far out anyway.

Ouch. I have used SysMech 6 and found it far from perfect. You should definitely e-mail them though with your problem, that way they can see where it went wrong.

Link I really don't know what to say to this.

Hard drive a little hot around the collar? We are looking at a great looking cooler from Vantec. It's not an enclosure, but rather straps to the side of your drive. Let's take it for a test drive. Discuss the review here!

Man, that's gorgeous. I am not even into orange that much usually, but it works with that case so well. How exactly did you make that roof scoop?

We need a front view of the PC!

Oh my God... wow.

I agree, but if I was bald I would definitely wear a hat :D
